- Eminem has been real quiet for the last year, but he’ll be all talk on New Year’s Eve when he helms a live broadcast on his Shade 45 channel on Sirius Satellite Radio. Starting Sunday at 8 p.m., Mr. Mathers will count down his twenty-five favorite hip-hop tracks of 2006 (and state the facts about his personal life!!). Sirius will also be broadcasting a plethora of uncensorsed live NYE concerts from around the country, including sets by Patti Smith, Hatebreed, My Morning Jacket, Chris Isaak and String Cheese Incident. A veritable cornucopia of music!
- Hyphy music is indirectly being blamed for the deaths of two people. “Ghost riding the whip,” a stunt in which a driver gets out of his car and dances around on top of the slowly moving vehicle to a thumping hip-hop beat, claimed the lives of a thirty-six-year-old Canadian man and an eighteen-year-old California boy. When did Teen Wolf become the new Scarface?
- The Paul McCartney/Heather Mills divorce is becoming more brutal than “Helter Skelter.” According to our pals at Us Weekly, the former Beatle removed $19.5 million worth of paintings from the sprawling Peasmarsh, Sussex, estate that the couple used to share, and then changed the alarm codes on his way out. Ouch.
- Long-running punk rockers The Queers have posted two songs from their forthcoming Munki Brain album on their MySpace page. The Ramones-obsessed rockers will start a major North American tour on January 9th and are also rumored to be involved in this summer’s Warped Tour. Happy birthday to us!
